nohman Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I have been putting it off since last summer, but I have finally started on Grisaia. For some reason, I also reread Riho's route in Deardrops this week. Definitely one of my favorite VNs, at least when it comes to characters.

Zenophilious Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Man, I'm really having trouble getting through Makina's route in Grisaia. Anyone have any advice on how to get through long routes in VNs without losing steam and having to take a break for a few days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berilium Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Just play another VN until you're ready to go again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyanko Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Playing Symphonic Rain, not too sure how I feel about it yet.. its nothing special so far. The mini game is pretty fun though, but also pretty hard sometimes if you ask me ^^; Also planning to install Kimi to Kanojo to kanojo no koi today. I hope I get it to work on my W8.1 laptop (with parser).. since Gekkou no Carnevale did not :c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tawm Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 How long would it take for you to get through an Elder Scrolls game? Yeah, and especially compared to a friend I know that skips routes that are important to the story. He skipped most of the routes in Little Busters and went straight into Refrain without the knowledge needed from the others (I'm not sure if he skipped Rin2 or not). He also skipped Unlimited and went from the 2 necessary routes in Extra to Alternative. Poor guy. >.< Well, he still ended up giving Alternative a 10 anyways, so at least it wasn't a huge detriment to his experience. Wish I could say the same for Little Busters, though. ;_; Well, I have 519 hours on Skyrim alone according to Steam. I've never finished it, lol. Got most things done in Morrowind and Oblivion within 300 hours each, though. That's a good example of OCD being a terrible burden right there. I started Alternative earlier today, and I can't really imagine reading it without going through Extra and Unlimited now. Only up to 28/11 so far, but I'm enjoying it more than Unlimited already. Still haven't seen an actual BETA, but the silhouettes from Unlimited alone did instill a sense of despair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FruitsPunchSamurai Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 My friend just started "if you thought it was a harem heaven, it was a yandere hell' Yup even that title alone is scary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenophilious Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Could I get a heads up for when Makina's h-scenes are? Some of my family is staying over, and I just want to know what sections I can play when they're around and which ones I can't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenshin_sama Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Man, I'm really having trouble getting through Makina's route in Grisaia. Anyone have any advice on how to get through long routes in VNs without losing steam and having to take a break for a few days? Do what I did for the Fate route in FSN, read for one hour per day until it starts getting better. You won't burn out too easily and you'll keep a consistent pace with it. Well, I have 519 hours on Skyrim alone according to Steam. I've never finished it, lol. Got most things done in Morrowind and Oblivion within 300 hours each, though. That's a good example of OCD being a terrible burden right there. I started Alternative earlier today, and I can't really imagine reading it without going through Extra and Unlimited now. Only up to 28/11 so far, but I'm enjoying it more than Unlimited already. Still haven't seen an actual BETA, but the silhouettes from Unlimited alone did instill a sense of despair. I haven't completely finished a single ES game. Unfortunately I won't be able to play Morrowind since I originally had an Xbox to play it (ah, the good ol' days), but I'll be buying the Anthology version eventually so I can get the chance to play it on PC. I didn't own a PC back then, so it'll be a good opportunity to play it on a different platform. That and I miss Morrowind, it's still my favorite in the ES franchise. I'll actually try to complete everything this time too. If the silhouettes were enough for ya, you're in for a ride for Alternative. Try to not go mental while reading it.

Slowpoke Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Hey hey hey, I know a lot of you guys are male, if not all of you guys that are active in here, but I was wondering if you guys played Dramatical Murder? I'm wondering why the scores are so low. I think its because of the Boys Love aspect and guys can get weird about that. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenshin_sama Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 You waiting for Skywind too? http://tesrenewal.com/skywind-faq Actually, I was not aware of that mod at all. Damn, that's one hell of an ambitious project. o.O I love the ES modding community. <3 Hey hey hey, I know a lot of you guys are male, if not all of you guys that are active in here, but I was wondering if you guys played Dramatical Murder?

I think its because of the Boys Love aspect and guys can get weird about that. lol If fujoshi in the west were not rare enough as it is, the ones that read eroge are incredibly niche. Very possible that the majority of people that read DRAMAtical Murder were males reading it for the Nitro+ tag and giving it lower scores for the yaoi. That said, an 8.31 is actually really good. Were you hoping for it to make the top 10 on VNDB or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenshin_sama Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Oh, right, almost forgot about EGS. I usually don't agree with their ratings. And it's okay, it happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's just because of them being so vocal, but I think you would have a hard time finding a girl in the community that doesn't like yaoi. Reading eroge is where it gets problematic though, yeah; especially since people that don't even know English aren't that uncommon here.

Aggressor Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Finished first game in Tiny Dungeon series, and I must say I didn't expect the finale to be that cool. On the othe hand I don't feel like starting the next one right away, so I'm taking a break with Konosora Flight Diary, Hotaru route. The first H-scene was only about an hour away from the start, so I doubt it'll take long to finish it. Then I'll probably move to something with imouto, my hunger for incest seems to be intensifying again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, I should probably narrow that down a little more. I can't remember where I saw it (Bing isn't pulling anything up for me either), but I did come across a survey stating that most women in the US are not into gay men having sex. In fact, there's even more women that prefer lesbian sex over gay men sex. And even gay men usually won't watch gay men porn. As for real life observations, I've only known two girls in high school that were into yaoi. One of them tricked me into thinking there was a girl in this one manga (my first experience with Japanese gender confusion). ._. However, I did also notice that MG has recently licensed more yaoi works. It's possible that the market for VNs is picking up for English-speaking fujoshi.

My personal view: I don't really like yaoi, but its not like I'm a big yuri or otome fan either. I think most people still prefer hetero romance/h-scenes. But I think when a choice has to be made, its true most girls (and just people in general) would prefer yuri over yaoi. No offense but Yaoi just feels much more forced and "unreal?" in most VNs, because normally they don't focus that much on the males when it comes to romance/h-scenes. Also gay people don't always have the kind of "softness" they let characters in yaoi VNs have, I always feel like they really try too hard to make them look gay.
